The King James Version of The Bible is used by the Mormons because it is the nearest translation to the original text. Though not perfect, for much has been corrupted by earlier translators and much has been left out of the Holy script. It is used by Mormons in conjunction with the Book of Mormon.
Under the direction of the Holy Spirit Joseph Smith started to correct some of the incorrect translations to the Bible but was murdered before he could complete his work. Some of the corrections can be found in the Joseph Smith Translations found on page 795 of the King James version as used by the Latter Day Saints.
All churches have some similarity to other scripture format as used by Christians and Non Christians alike. This does not mean that they have any connection to each other.
The Mormon church is a RESTORED church, and not a breakaway from any other church. It has no connection to any other church upon the face of the earth. All religions have some of the same truth, for truth is truth whichever religion practices it.
Finally in regarding the Book of Mormon using the Biblical word "Cherubims" I think that the writer will find that the correct word is used in the Book of Mormon,that of "Cherubim".

∙ 8y agoThe Mormon view would be that the Mormon Church (Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints) arose from revelations to Joseph Smith and therefore did not "come from" another denomination.
However, the Church has always used the Anglican King James Version (KJV) of the Bible, and the Book of Mormon was heavily influenced by the KJV, both in style and content. For example, the KJV contains an error, with a double plural for "cherubims" and the original Book of Mormon appears to have contained exactly the same error (corrected in later editions). On this evidence, it could be said that Mormonism comes from a background of the Church of England (Anglican Church).
